Cynthia Bailey is speaking up and out following Nene Leakes‘ less than endorsing remarks about her.

The ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ original hosted The Big Tigger Morning Show on V103 and revealed that she took umbrage with Bailey missing the funeral of her husband Gregg Leakes, who succumbed to colon cancer last month.
